6402.91.80.51 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 6402.91.80.51, encompasses women's footwear that is not specifically categorized elsewhere within heading 6402. The defining characteristics are that the footwear has outer soles and uppers made of rubber or plastics, covers the ankle, and is valued over $6.50 but not over $12 per pair. This classification applies to a broad range of women's shoes, boots, and other foot coverings that meet these material and value criteria.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 6402.91.80.45 ("Work footwear"), is crucial. While both fall under the broader umbrella of other footwear covering the ankle with rubber or plastic soles and uppers, this category specifically excludes footwear designed and intended for industrial or occupational use. Therefore, everyday fashion footwear for women that meets the price point and material requirements would be classified here, whereas specialized work boots or shoes would fall under the sibling.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 6402.91.80.51. The classification is final at this level, based on the combination of material composition, ankle coverage, target gender (women's), and the specified value range per pair. Importers and exporters must ensure all these criteria are met for accurate classification.
